There Is A Concept Called Body Autonomy. Its Generally Considered A Human Right. Bodily Autonomy Means

There is a concept called body autonomy. Its generally considered a human right. Bodily autonomy means a person has control over who or what uses their body, for what, and for how long. Its why you can’t be forced to donate blood, tissue, or organs. Even if you are dead. Even if you’d save or improve 20 lives. It’s why someone can’t touch you, have sex with you, or use your body in any way without your continuous consent. A fetus is using someone’s body parts. Therefore under bodily autonomy, it is there by permission, not by right. It needs a persons continuous consent. If they deny and withdraw their consent, the pregnant person has the right to remove them from that moment. A fetus is equal in this regard because if I need someone else’s body parts to live, they can also legally deny me their use. By saying a fetus has a right to someone’s body parts until it’s born, despite the pregnant person’s wishes, you are doing two things. 1. Granting a fetus more rights to other people’s bodies than any born person. 2. Awarding a pregnant person less rights to their body than a corpse.

It’s sad how many times this needs to be explained.

My friend told me today I should not eat fruit after 2 PM, and eating fruit after 2 PM will make me gain weight, and I'm confused. She apparently read it on some website and I was going to call bullshit on it but I knew that would be rude.

Smack her in the face with a banana at 2:01 p.m. and then eat it. Because that’s dumb.

DAESH (ISIS/ISIL) kills Muslims in the second holiest city in the Muslim faith at the end of Ramadan, the holiest month, near Eid, a holy day, and people still think DAESH represents all Muslims?

if you see someone being interrupted in a conversation, acknowledge them, don’t let them be pushed to the side. if you see someone lagging behind, walk beside them. if someone is being ignored, take the step to include them. always remind people of their worth. it hurts when it feels like you’re being forgotten. that small gesture can mean a lot.

Kesha was being raped by her producer for 10 years straight and when she tried to push charges , her right to make music was taken away from her.now she is not only a victim of a disgusting crime but her career is at risk too, help kesha by joining the hashtag #FreedomForKesha, spread it and let us not just sit and watch , i don’t care if you like her music or not, she is still a human, no one deserves to be treated like this, everybody deserve love and respect .

Only 3 out of 133 mass shootings in the US in the past year were perpetrated by Muslims. That means 130 non-Muslims killed at least 4 people. But yeah, it’s the Muslims we gotta worry about, not the white Christian dude with a bad haircut.
